Richard Guerrero

Richard Guerrero was a young Milwaukee man known to those who loved him for his devotion to family. Public records and investigative files identify him as a 22‑year‑old Hispanic man who was last seen leaving his family’s home on March 24, 1988. Though many personal details remain private in the public record, available sources indicate Richard lived in Milwaukee with his family and that his disappearance deeply unsettled them.

Richard’s relatives described him as someone who stayed in close contact with family and whose absence was immediately noticed — a testimony to the everyday bonds that defined him. In the years after he was last seen, his family actively sought answers, at times hiring private investigators and pursuing every possible lead. That search reflected the grief and determination of people who would not accept uncertainty about a loved one.

Official records and later investigative documents connect Richard’s disappearance to the broader, tragic series of deaths uncovered in Milwaukee in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Law-enforcement filings and subsequent criminal complaints list him among those who were reported missing in 1988 and later identified in prosecutorial materials. While some records supply a birth date of December 12, 1965, and confirm March 24, 1988 as the date he was last seen, Richard’s life in public sources is mostly recorded in the context of the search for him and his family’s efforts to remember him.

What remains plainly clear amid limited public detail is that Richard mattered deeply to his family. He was a real person with relationships and roots in Milwaukee — not merely an entry in a file. This remembrance honors him as a son and brother whose presence was meaningful to those who knew him, and whose memory deserves dignity and quiet regard. The public record may hold gaps about his everyday life, but it does not erase the fact that a young life ended too soon and that his family’s love endures.
